Directions: Pre heat oven to 350° & coat a 9x13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.In a medium saucepan heat the oil over medium heat. Add the tomato paste, garlic & quinoa. Cook, uncovered, for 3-4 minutes. Stir occasionally.Stir in the water, salt & seasoned salt- cover & reduce heat to medium-low & simmer for 15 min (until 99% of the liquid has been absorbed & the quinoa is cooked through)- Remove fromt he heat & allow to sot for 5 minutes.While the quinoa is sitting- whisk together the eggs & milk. Stir into the quinoa along with the cheddar cheese- you should see the cheese melting.Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish & top with Panko & smoked paprika (optional)Bake for 25-30 min until browned around the edges.

Dish out & top with anything you want (sour cream, tomatoes, etc etc)

This was SO good! I did make some changes- i left out the leeks & tomatoes that the original recipe called for (because i had neither)- but i did add tomato pesto & next time i think I'll toss in some broccoli or kale.This was enough for dinner for the husband & I + leftovers.Total score.
